Well, “boy” in older contexts did mean “servant”; the word “lad” had the same meaning in addition to a connotation with being a foot soldier.

Beautiful set, but the board is set up wrong.

Nor only are the pieces set up wrong, the board is also incorrectly oriented.

1. Pawns go on the 2nd rank
2. A dark square is at the lower left of each player

We are living in an era almost impossible to satirize.

Though the Babylon Bee does a good job of it.
